I am criticizing how AI progress is reported and discussed -- given how important this development is, accurate communication is even more important for the discussion.

I think you inferring my motivation for the rant and creating a strawman yourself.

I do agree that directing my rant at the generic "fans" is not productive. The article Tao wrote was a good example of communicating the result. I should direct my criticism at specific instances of bad communication, but not the general "fans".
